Thanks. Very helpful.

Kenny, what about Velocity Script when creating Email Script My Tokens in the 'Edit Script Token' box?

Velocity will use the SOAP name, though it's easiest to kill two birds with one stone, and just drag the field from the editor into the script.  This will give you the correct reference and enable the field to be processed by the script.

This is such a great summary, thank you! Does HTTP Post(Post URL) fall under the second bucket?

Using the forms /save or /save2 endpoint is equivalent to a form post.
